ANNIVERSARY PHOTOGRAPH

CLOSE

We buttoned our jackets, composed the hair, pulled back our shoulders and smiled for this unique event.  It has been many decades since the entire school posed for one photograph.  That was possible in the days when we numbered seven or eight hundred but it is a logistically tall-order for a modern day school.

But for the 450th Anniversary we did it, and the results will be on sale in a few weeks time.
